IE will not work through wirelessI have a desktop with a dial up modem, it is also connected to a wireless
router through a cable. I also have a laptop connected to the router wirelessly. Both are running XP. I can read files to and from both computers. Both computers show an internet gate way in internet connections that is connectected. I can not get IE to connect. It will work if I hook the laptop to a phone line and dial up, but will not work through the wireless connection with the desktop dialed up. I have searched the newsgroups and beyond and tried all the things I could find to correct this problem to no avail. All help is appreciated. Thank You

I've tried setting up ICS, but I get an IP conflict on the desktop. I've tried changing IP addresses for different things. I still could not get it to work.

Completely undo and get rid of anything you did with ICS. The wireless "router" *IS* your Internet Connection Sharing,....*not* anything in Windows or having anything to do with Windows. The problem is that IE is only going to acknowledge the Dialup connection and not the LAN Connection. Make sure the Dialup Connection is *not* active during this.... Open IE, choose Tools-->Internet Options Choose the Connections Tab Choose "Never dial a connection" But do not "remove" the Dialup Connection from the large Textbox if you ever expect to use it sometimes. Click the "LAN Settings" Button,...make sure all settings in there are cleared out. If none of that works: Make sure the Dialup Connection is *not* active during this.... Open IE, choose Tools-->Internet Options Choose the Connections Tab Click the "Setup" button. Follow the prompts and tell it that you are connecting to the Internet "over the LAN",...not by anything else.. -- Show quoteHide quotePhillip Windell www.wandtv.com The views expressed, are my own and not those of my employer, or Microsoft, or anyone else associated with me, including my cats. ----------------------------------------------------- "Scott J" <Sco***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:B3C00920-AA65-436F-B24E-7DB813E50EF4@microsoft.com... > Thank You for your response. > > I've tried setting up ICS, but I get an IP conflict on the desktop.

You have to plug the Wireless Router through one of its regular LAN ports (No the Internet port) to the Network card on the Host computer. Configure the Router according to the principle as described in this page, http://www.ezlan.net/router_AP.html Then use ICS to tie it together, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306126 Jack (MS, MVP-Networking) Show quoteHide quote "Scott J" <Sco***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:D8CED58E-E756-4717-8A5D-57902DFD8ACA@microsoft.com... >I have a desktop with a dial up modem, it is also connected to a wireless > router through a cable.

Jack, I do have the host computer hooked to one of the LAN ports on the router. I attempted many things and still cannont get the connection to work. You had me refer to this web page, http://www.ezlan.net/router_AP.html, and set my host up for ICS. I tried and it still will not work. If I switch off DHCP on my wireless router I get limited or no connectivity. The web page you had me refer to though is somewhat confusing because it talks about 2 routers. I only have the one wireless router. Any more help is appreciated.

The page linked to is not exactly your scenario but the principle is the same. ICS IP range is 192.168.0.x Set the Router core IP to 192.168.0.10 and give the wireless card a static IP of 192.168.0 20 Make sure that the Wireless work, then switch On ICS and configure it.
